There is no magic pill for happiness

There Is No Magic Pill There is no magic pill For happiness No easy trip up life’s hill There is no completeness . Life just continues on Day after day Even when we’re gone No matter what they say. People come and go Trees live and die Travelling to and fro Like comets in the sky. Flashing bright at night Dazzling in the sky Then fade out of sight As they say goodbye. We only control our light As we travel through Some make it shine so bright And how we love them so. We remember them in books And legends that are told Casting envious looks On lives that were so bold. There is no magic pill For happiness Only your own will Only your own brightness. Let your light shine With all of your might Happiness so fine A life shinning bright. Luke Feb 22nd 2013

I see a great likeness in the photo. Yes, we can go on living just the way we are, or we can shine. I prefer the latter to the status quo.
